Handbook
The techniques used here are not exclusive in their scope.
The reader may prefer to use more basic methods
or
develop
new ones to suit his
or
her needs. Each example
is
self-
contained
and
not related
to
any
of
the others. The reader may
wish to browse through the
chapter
and
pick those examples
which best exemplify his
or
her specific applications.
The emphasis here
is
not
on artistic talent. No freehand
drawing skills are required. Anyone can draw diagrams with a
professional appearance using the shapes
and
special functions
available with MacPaint.
Each section begins with a
short
overview illustrating the
specific skills covered. A detailed instructive narrative follows
to aid the reader in recreating each diagram. Finally, each
section contains a short conclusion with comments
on
alternate
methods and a brief review.
The Organizational Chart
The organizational chart
is
commonly used to illustrate
levels
of
responsibility and authority within a business. Very
often, such a
chart
will be used in a briefing
or
tour
through a
company.
This example
is
designed
to
provide further practice in the
use
of
reference points as discussed in
chapter
6. The diagram
will also entail the use
of
the copy function as well as con-
strained movement
about
the drawing surface.
It
will illustrate
methods
of
entering text into a diagram as well.
INSTRUCTIONS
Figure 7
.I
shows the diagram to be developed in this
section. This organizational
chart
is
only a small sample
of
a
possible extensive illustration
of
a business's hierarchy.
